This patch enables warnings if one of the deprecate functions that rely
in the implicit use of the global Genode::env() accessor are called.
For the time being, some places within the base framework continue
to rely on the global function while omitting the warning by calling
'env_deprecated' instead of 'env'.
Issue #1987
This patch removes the outdates doc/architecture.txt since the
topics are covered by the book. We keep repos/os/doc/init.txt
because it contains a few details not present in the book (yet).
The patch streamlines the terminology a bit. Furthermore, it
slightly adjusts a few source-code comments to improve the book's
functional specification chapter.
This patch supplements each existing connection type with an new
constructor that is meant to replace the original one. The new
one takes a reference to the component's environment as argument and
thereby does not rely on the presence of the globally accessible
'env()' interface.
The original constructors are marked as deprecated. Once we have
completely abolished the use of the global 'env()', we will remove them.
Fixes#1960

bus/dev and vendor_id/product_id

- Report 'label' as well as 'bus' and 'dev'
- Add policy handling to raw driver (includes reconfiguration
at runtime)
- Use own memory backing store for large DMA allocations
